7:15am UPDATE: Kelly and Courtney have arrived safely and the group will be heading to Rivne momentarily.  It is a 5-6 hour trip on the bus, I will let you know when I get an update that they are in Rivne.

1:45 pm UPDATE: They have checked into their hotel in Rivne, and they are on their way (walking) to dinner.  Jason said everyone he talked to reported sleeping well last night.  It is 8:45pm there, in case you wondered.  And according to weather.com, it is 75 degress (and feels like 75 degrees), just in case any of you in the heat wave zone are thinking you should have gone along  ;o)
